The US has issued an advisory for its citizens travelling to India, urging “increased caution” due to crime and rape, and advising them not to travel to certain parts of central and eastern parts of the country due to terrorism.
The travel advisory issued last week states that “rape is one of the fastest growing crimes in India” and violent crimes, including sexual assault, happen at tourist sites and other locations.
It added that terrorists, who target tourist locations, transportation hubs, markets/shopping malls and government facilities, may attack with little or no warning.
